Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a basic problem and shouldn’t take any time at all!

So first you take 17 and divide it by 3.

Your answer should be somewhere along the lines of 5.6666666667.

Now you can’t have 5.666666666667 bags so round up.

Robert will only need 6 sacks.

One angle of a triangle has a measure of 36°. The measure of the third angle is 28° less than 3 times the measure of the second

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Define your variable and write your equation: 36 + b + (3b-28) = 180°.
measure of the second angle: 43°.
measure of the third angle: 101°

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 36

c = 3b - 28

a + b + c = 180°

a = measure of the first angle

b = measure of the second angle

c = measure of the third angle

then:

1) 36 + b + (3b-28) = 180 ⇒ )Define your variable. Write your equation and solve)

b + 3b + 36 - 28 = 180

4b + 8 = 180

4b = 180 - 8

4b = 172

b = 172/4

2) b = 43° ⇒ measure of the second angle

c = 3b - 28

c = 3*43 - 28

c = 129 - 28

3) c = 101° ⇒ measure of the third angle

Check:

36° + 43° + 101° = 180°
